[Addison]

"How can you think that," my heart drops as the depth of his accusation seeps into my bones and the last of my righteous anger drains from my body. "I would never..." my heart is breaking, what is left of it falling into a thousand pieces. "Why would you...?"

"Because you're jealous," my husband says as he continues to spew his accusations. "Evelyn told me everything. She even showed me the messages you sent, threatening her if she came near me or our son. Jayson told me you made him play outside at night, and that the kidnappers almost got him too if Evelyn hadn't saved him."

I should be mad. I deserve to be mad.

But at hearing Michael's lack of faith in me, the last of my resolve evaporates like mist.

And now my son is lying to protect her as well, making up stories to defend Evelyn.

"I never said or did any of those things," my voice deepens, exhaustion settling into my bones. "I'd never put Jayson at risk. We were outside playing because he demanded we go out and then h

  • Divorced But Desired by the Mafia King   Chapter 202

    [Livy]This is not a game I want to play because it isn’t really a game. He will kill my Mama and make me watch because he wants me to come out. He’s trying to hurt my Uncle. This is about more than just me and Mama. Before, with the bad men, I knew it wasn’t a game either and that the computer was lying to me to make me feel better about hurting them. She didn’t need to go through that much trouble. I wanted to hurt them. Just like the bad men before hurt mama and me, and killed my nanny, Sally. I wanted them to feel pain for making me hurt. I know that means I’m not a very good girl, but sometimes good people have to do bad things. “Computer, I need to go out there,” I cry desperately, “I can’t let him kill Mama.” The computer doesn’t respond and the only sound in the room is my crying blended with the silent hum of electricity. I’m scared. If the computer won’t help me, what am I going to do?“So, she is your new Mama?” The computer sounds sad. “I am glad you have someone who l

    [Livy]“Shall we play another game, Olivia,” the computer asks me as I watch the bad guys scramble. The last game was fun. We turned on the sprinklers. Not the regular sprinklers, but what the computer called the “super hard sprinklers.” “What are those sprinklers for?” I finally asked as the water powered down and I could see two men lying on their backs. They aren’t moving. “Did we kill them?”“Negative, Olivia.” The computer replies in her smooth, kind voice. I’ve never heard it before, but it feels familiar, and makes me feel more calm even though this is a scary situation. “They are not dead. They have broken ribs and fractured hips. They can be saved with intervention.” The computer pauses and then asks, “do you want me to call the paramedics.” “No,” I pout. “What if they hurt the paramedics. They don’t deserve that.” “Young miss,” the computer soothes, “They will not hurt the paramedics. They cannot stand. Shall I call them?”There is something in her tone that makes me feel

  • Divorced But Desired by the Mafia King   Chapter 200

    [Michael]My chest hurts like I've been slammed into by a truck, my body left scattered on the side of the road. Maybe that's what happened to me. I smell bad enough. But there's carpet underneath my hands. and the scent of my urine is mixed with that of cobwebs and old dust. And my wrists burn. Did somebody hogtie me?"Ouch, fuck!" My head slams into a piece of solid wood as I wiggle, trying to get either my hands or legs free. With a hard kick, I manage to snap whatever the hell was used to bind my feet, loosening up my arms enough to free myself the rest of the way. Standing, I look around to see a large, dark room. An office. Oh that's right--Addison was here. I found my wife parading around in that sweet little maid costume, flashing her legs and half her ass to the world while searching Debrassy's house. What could she be looking for? Is it something for CCRP Law Group? But Debrassy is their biggest client. Everyone knows it’s practically his personal team of lawyers who some

  • Divorced But Desired by the Mafia King   Chapter 199

    [Evelyn]The scene keeps replaying in my head. I’m standing backstage, looking out at the crowd and glowing lights. Debrassy, that bastard, is glowing like a gem and standing next to him is that bitch, Miss Bluebird, the girl he’s worked so hard to keep away from me, but who is always around, her essence lingering, smelling like spring apricots.Before this, we were never allowed to meet. At first, I thought it was a coincidence, that we were never in the same place at the same time. This whole time I thought she was the other woman, but it turns out that was always me. Even when she was just a child, he had planned to shape her, to groom her, to cut her rough edges and present her as a sparkling gem on his hand. Jessica Johnson Debrassy is his wife, his treasure, the mother of his heir–I’m nothing more than the rag he used to keep her clean. And our children together, our two sons, are nothing more than bastards bearing another man’s last name. One day, when our son is old enough to

  • Divorced But Desired by the Mafia King   Chapter 198

    [Katelyn]Our signals have been quiet all evening and it's making me insane. It shouldn't be quiet, ever. But it has been two hours since the party started and we haven't heard a single confirmation. By now we should have heard something back from our operatives, but even BLACK EAGLE seems to have gone silent. Something is blocking the signals from Debrassy’s manor. It’s probably Jessica. I wish I had seen through her sooner before bringing her into Rose Thorn as an associate programmer and my protege. She had so much potential, so much shrewd intelligence. She was Hunter’s ward, his adopted daughter. I thought we could trust her. When we found the evidence of her betrayal, saw the signs on the wall that she’s been playing both sides the entire time, it was like having my heart cut from my chest and burned. Over the years, I had started to trust her more and more, and I don’t trust easily. Now, other than Reggie, Hunter, and Ace, I’m not sure who I can trust in my organization or in

  • Divorced But Desired by the Mafia King   Chapter 197

    [Adam]Evelyn, also known as Arrowheart, is standing backstage looking at Debrassy’s show as I stride off stage to give the boss and his lady space to shine. The poor woman looks like he gut punched her, which I can totally get. Her whole world just crumbled to dust at her feet. How many years has she been with the boss? Seven? Diest frau ist dumm! Personally, I can’t stand looking at the minx, and I think what she’s dealing with now is karma. She came into town, destroyed some poor man’s life and then blew through all of his heiress wife’s money faster than you could say “charge my card.” She says it was all for a cover, but I know it’s because she enjoys the chase and the kill as much as I do. We’ve worked on and off for years now. I’ve never liked how she steamrollers over everyone like her opinions are the only ones that matter. It’s her own stupid arrogance that put her in this position. She should have never fallen in love with Mr. D. She knew the relationship was transactiona
